ARE the producers listening - CANADIAN edition - you have a Phillipines edition.

If you let Canadians compete, think of the currency savings...

If some Canadian marketing company is reading this... think of all the viewers and
advertising revenues - create a Canadian show.

I have an idea for a new twist which would be good for TAR it is called The Give Way.
Here is how it works:

A Give Way is just like a Yeild / U-turn in the way that a 1 team has to use The Give Way on another team and they can only do it once.
If a team suffers the Give Way they have to wait at the place were they recieved the Give Way until the team behind them comes and collects their clue after that team collects their clue them may leave which means they are giving way to that team thus the name give way. If a team in last place has the Give Way used on them then they can just continue on as they were before.

This could be either a bad or good thing for the teams because the team that uses the Give Way does not know how close the teams are to the other team that they have used the Give Way to. For example you may have the Give Way used on you but as soon as you arrive and find out the team might be right behind you so you can go straight away but you may have the give way used on you and the team behind you may be days away for you.

The best bit about the Give Way is it's unpredictibility.

I think it is a good idea what do you guys think about it?

i think that in a future season of amazing race there should be 6 teams that exceeded in the amazing race (Finalists) and teams that were eliminated early (8th or lower)

All Stars - Kris and Jon, Nick & Don, Colin & Christie, BJ & Tyler, Blake & Paige, Kelly & Jon

Second Chances - Debbie & Bianca, Lena & Kristy, Mark & Bill, Lorena & Jason, Duke & Lauren, Dennis & Erika

The experiment will show if these second chance teams are strong but made a mistake, or if they are just not strong racers. This will seperate the good from the bad!

In one of the seasons, there should be one new contestant (one we have never seen before) paired up with a contestant from a past race...
Also: there should be something called Traffic Light where Red Light: One person from one team does a task with one person from another team. Yellow Light: the other two people have to find the clue together which is located at a 50m radius around the area. Green Light: When the person completes the task and the person finds the clue and they can continue the race

Possibly I think the producers should try a twist that is a Yield plus a Speed Bump....

Bring back the begging hahahahahahahahahahahaha

There should be a rule called; UPLOAD. This will be placed before a roadblock, the teams that uses the upload will be helping another team.

For example, Mary & Jane uses the upload on James & Peter, M & J must also specifically indicate which team they want J & P to ''help'' complete the roadblock. If M & J wants J & P to complete the roadblock for Nick & Sarah, they must do so. This means that either James or Peter have to do the roadblock for Nick & Sarah too, they will have to complete the roadbloack 2 times before getting their next clue. Nick & Sarah can skip the roadblock and proceed on with their next task. Mary & Jane have just uploaded more stress on James & Peter. :D

Well, thats my idea...might be a little confusing, but if you read hard enough, you will definitely understand. :D

First and foremost - Me, my wife and my step son (52, 46 and 12 yrs old respectively) love this show and look forward to being entertained by it every year. It is, by far, the best reality show on the planet!

Pros and Improvements:
1 - It is a race that all ages can participate in.
2 - I think the prizes for the team arriving first at the final destination is a great idea. That way, if you do get eliminated in the coming weeks, at least you won something. Great idea TAR Producers.
3 - The show is a travelers Godsend! We not only watch the show for the game itself, but it gives us ideas for our next potential trip. I am sure other viewers are thinking the same thing. Keeping this in mind, I suggest promoting MORE local traveling (USA) along with international.
4 - New contestants rule! We love the new personalities that evolve from having new contestants. It’s the only way to go.
5 - You need more head games! TAR needs to create situations where the teams are forced to take sides. It makes the race so much more exciting.
Ex: Road blocks are great, but you need to have them more often….and with a twist. Try rewarding teams who use the road blocks (it encourages a little chaos between the teams). Also, give the people being blocked the option of reducing there time by doing some goofy chore or something funny….like, picking apples while using stilts or a good ole carnival dunking contest..
6- Have the contestants participate in Woodsmen’s Fest (be easy on them, but make it interesting). You know, throwing the axe in the stump or sawing wood or downing a tree on a can.

Cons:
1 - Please - No more All-Star races! They are SO boring and it is unfair to give a team who has won the million dollar prize a chance to win it again!
2 - Stop taking us through impoverish countries. I mean, Africa must have areas with breathtaking scenery and interesting history, myths and legends. That’s what viewers want to see.

As I read other peope's post about wants and dont wants... I did come up with my list
**More challenges like the earlier seasons...there are many things that can be done but they need to be complex and complicated to keep the audience at the edge of the seats while cheering for their team
**Keep the speed bump --that was a huge plus... make them really work hard and work together to get back on track
**More diverse cultures and / or nationalities... you have fans all over the globe... it would be nice to see other people of all creed being involved... Love Kynt and Vixen...
**More, more participation of the local custom--what sense of going to a destination if you dont have them doing or being involved in their custom... and please not the easiest one...
**Hate the Fast Forward to easy--this is a free $1 million bucks, let them work for that fast forward... they are already in front... let it be something fun and funny or something that they absolutely need to use to be in dire situation... Not just to have to get a tattoo...that was a sure suck teeth come on producer moment
**Make a team pair up with another team like you did in a previous season "Team Work" I know it's a race but its also a character building situation...
**This year's final leg was on the scale from one to 10 i would gave it a 7.5...everything was so-so until the puzzle which i thought was absolutely brillant... make them think knowing there are one step to a million
**Last, keep the show more challenging, keep us at the edge of the seats, again pick other races, nationality, more diverse culture, not just one / two blacks, gays, models, blondes, there are others out there you've been winning awards for the show so obviously people from all walk of life enjoys it... get them, find them, and if your going to do another previous winners or runners up...let us choose them... NOT the producers... we dont want to see ROB & AMBER anymore.

I love these two new twists and think they will make the show better than it already is.
